Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Question:
Where can I obtain information regarding property zoning for unincorporated areas of LA County?

Answer:
You may choose to contact Los Angeles County Department of Regional Planning in person, via telephone, and via email, or to try to obtain this information yourself from the department's website.

If you choose to visit Regional Planning's website, please use the department's GIS-NET mapping application for zoning information. After accepting the terms and conditions of usage, you will be launched into the GIS system. Once there, click on “Search” and type in either your address (House Number and Street Name) or Parcel ID (Assessor’s Parcel Number or APN). Click on “Submit” and you should see your property pulled up on the interface. The zoning designation is in blue (on the map). Please note that the zoning designation provided by the Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office (in the tabular report) is often incorrect; and should not be used for unincorporated areas.

To visit Regional Planning in person, please check the department's office locations and hours.

To contact Regional Planning via telephone, please call (213) 974-6411 during business hours.

To contact Regional Planning via email, please send an email to zoningldcc@planning.lacounty.gov
